Draft 2025-26 State and Federal Legislative Platforms
Alexis Carter/Kristin Jacinto
Overview
Every two years, staff conducts
a
comprehensive review of the Orange County
Transportation Authority’s Legislative Platforms to ensure updates are provided on
relevant issues that are anticipated to be of discussion for the upcoming legislative
sessions. Following extensive stakeholder outreach, initial draft revisions to the Orange
County Transportation Authority’s 2025-26 State and Federal Legislative Platforms have
been prepared for consideration by the Orange County Transportation Authority Board of
Directors. Before a final draft is considered for adoption, these drafts will be revised as a
result of feedback from the Orange County Transportation Authority Board of Directors and
stakeholder input.
Recommendation(s)
Direct staff to move forward with the recommended revisions to the draft 2025-26 Orange
County Transportation Authority State and Federal Legislative Platforms and incorporate
any feedback from the Orange County Transportation Authority Board of Directors,
returning to the Board of Directors for final adoption at a later date.
